Aten D Tab

Tablet

Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure); helps reduce risk of stroke, heart attack and kidney problems related to uncontrolled BP

Atenolol is a beta-1 selective beta-blocker that slows heart rate and reduces the force of contraction, lowering blood pressure. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic that increases salt and water excretion, reducing fluid volume and vascular resistance.

Take by mouth as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day. Can be taken with or without food; swallow with water. Do not stop suddenly without medical advice.

dizziness, fatigue, slow heart rate, low blood pressure, increased urination, headache, nausea, weakness, electrolyte imbalance (low potassium/sodium), increased blood sugar, increased uric acid

Use with caution in diabetes (may mask hypoglycaemia symptoms), asthma/COPD (beta-blockers may worsen bronchospasm), kidney or liver impairment, gout, electrolyte imbalance, and in the elderly. Monitor blood pressure, pulse, electrolytes, renal function and blood glucose periodically. Do not discontinue abruptly (risk of rebound hypertension/angina). Seek help for severe dizziness, fainting, very slow pulse, wheeze, or signs of dehydration.

Other antihypertensives (additive hypotension), calcium channel blockers like verapamil/diltiazem (bradycardia/heart block), digoxin (bradycardia), NSAIDs (reduced BP control, renal risk), lithium (increased lithium levels/toxicity with thiazides), antidiabetic medicines/insulin (altered glucose control), corticosteroids or amphotericin B (low potassium), ACE inhibitors/ARBs or potassium supplements (electrolyte changes), alcohol (increased dizziness)

Store below 25°C in a dry place, protected from light and moisture. Keep in original strip and out of reach of children.
